Real Madrid seem to be leading the race and AS now reports that Zinedine Zidane is ready to sign Mbappe this summer and loan him back to Monaco for a season. The Madrid boardroom feels this is the best possible option for all the parties involved as Real Madrid will get a better player in one year while Mbappe will increase his chances of playing for France in the next World Cup.
